If the damage had been on the other side they would probably have used it as the reason for your suspension fault ???  Which is obviously an air leak somewhere which needs a mechanic to physically look for.


Although you know that!

Andy, I seriously hope you're running a book for the time/inconvenience associated with their incompetence.

If I were in your shoes, they'd be getting substantial bill from me for wasted time & travel costs when this was all done and dusted.

I`d have been fuming at that, how incompetent can you actually get before you`re actually brain dead  :(

Since the last post here, ...... I sent the service manager pictures of it leaning though and then took it back. They looked & couldn't find a fault so I brought it back home. The following morning it was leaning/kneeling, sent them more pictures & took it back. They had it for a further 10 days without finding a fault and I went in yesterday to tell them I thought know they were bull shitting me & there HAD to be a leak and STAR (their TechII) wouldn't find & they might have to get off their arses to find it.
Went this morning to collect my car and the first car I saw was mine ...... leaning



Set off passed it to go to reception & immediately saw  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(



as you might have guessed I wasn't a happy bunny. Their complete apathy was unbelievable! Of course nobody knew anything about it, but their 'bodyshop is coming over tomorrow to give a quote' .............. I couldn't give a flying f*** how much the quote is!  ???

I'd of gone apeshit about then >:( >:(

I don't suppose you took a note of the mileage before you handed it over?

I didn't, but it shouldn't be too difficultt o work out. The mileage is on the original invoice & I've only driven home from Bolton & back twice.

I do think it's been damage on site though ....... there's a lot of cars on a small site
